6 Functional safety (SIL)

VEGAMET 391 • With SIL qualification

38704-EN-130228

For each parameter change, the instrument must be unlocked via a

PIN (see chapter "Setup steps - Release adjustment"). The device

status is indicated via the symbol of an unlocked or locked padlock.

Warning:

If the instrument is unlocked, the safety function must be classified as

unsafe. This applies until the parameterization is terminated correctly.

If necessary, other measures must be taken to maintain the safety

function.

All parameters changed by the operator are marked automatically so

that they can verified in the next step.

For the verification the PIN must be entered first and a comparison of

two character strings must be carried out. The user must confirm that

both character strings are identical, this is used to check the charac-

ter representation and the communication channels. The verification

texts are provided in German and with all other menu languages in

English.
In a second step, all modified, safety-relevant parameters are listed,

which must all be confirmed. After this process is finished, the instru-

ment will be locked automatically and the safety function is guaran-

teed again.

Warning:

If the described process was not carried out completely or correctly

(e.g. interruption or voltage loss), the instrument remains in unsafe

and unlocked status.

Warning:

In case of a reset to basic settings, all safety-relevant parameters will

also be reset to default. Therefore all safety-relevant parameters must

be checked or readjusted.
